Laser Scar Reduction in Lucknow
Smoother Skin After Acne, Pimples and Old Scars
Fractional laser treatments that rebuild collagen and resurface the skin to soften acne scars and uneven texture, planned by an MD Dermatologist.
Your Acne Is Gone. Now Let's Treat the Scars.
Pimples and acne often leave behind marks, pits and uneven texture long after they've healed. Makeup can hide them for a while, and creams rarely reach deep enough to help. Fractional laser treatment works below the surface. It stimulates fresh collagen and resurfaces the skin, so scars gradually look softer and smoother.
At La Densitae Lucknow, our MD Dermatologist examines the type, depth and age of your scars and your skin tone, then chooses the laser and settings that suit you.
How Does Laser Scar Reduction Work?
A fractional laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin and leaves healthy skin untouched between them. As these tiny zones heal, the skin produces new collagen and replaces scarred tissue with smoother, fresher skin. Because only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, it heals faster than with older resurfacing methods.
Our Scar Laser Technologies
| Feature | Fractional Erbium YAG | Fractional CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Newer scars, mild to moderate scars, facial scars | Older, deeper, long-standing scars |
| Strength | Gentler | More powerful |
| Downtime | Shorter (about 3-5 days) | Longer (about 5-7 days) |

Your dermatologist chooses the laser based on how old the scar is, how deep it is and where it is.
